Dead Bodies Everywhere!

I got to see Body Worlds2 at the Ontario Science Centre this weekend and it was AMAZING! It was artist and educational at the same time.

I actually thought I would be grossed out by all the bodies and organs and such but I wasn't, I was more in awe of how beautiful it all looked. I think that only times I was disturbedt/upset is when I saw the face of the one man whose body was split up into 6-8 pieces side-by-side. Also, they were 8-24 week old fetuses on display and those kind of upset me. I couldn't stay in that room for too long, it kept making me think of my miscarriage. The rest of the displays didn't phase me though, because the bodies were skinned and you can't tell what they used to look like when they were alive.

I can't even wrap my mind around some of the displays...they looked very difficult to do if not impossible. I was afraid, being my clumsy self, that I might trip and break something int here. Wouldn't want to do that..I might be made part of the exhibit! LoL.

"Suicide By Fat" was a display that made me really glad that I'm not obese anymore. They had a man slices vertically into 5-6 pieces. You could see all the fat the was all over his organs. It was shocking to see. Sadly, I'm sure some people saw that display and then went and had McDonald's later. A lot of people seem to know how badly they're treating their bodies but don't seem to care. I'm not sure why. I mean, eating lots of yummy food made me happy while I was eating it but I can't imagine it being worth it knowing how miserable my later years were going to be if I kept on down that path.



"Most people think life sucks, and then you die. Not me. I beg to differ. I think life sucks, then you get cancer, then your dog dies, your wife leaves you, the cancer goes into remission, you get a new dog, you get remarried, you owe ten million dollars in medical bills but you work hard for thirty five years and you pay it back and then one day you have a massive stroke, your whole right side is paralyzed, you have to limp along the streets and speak out of the left side of your mouth and drool but you go into rehabilitation and regain the power to walk and the power to talk and then one day you step off a curb at Sixty-seventh Street, and BANG you get hit by a city bus and then you die. Maybe." ~Denis Leary
